Games played Feb. 9, 2013

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Cameron Biedscheid scored on a layup with 1:19 left in the fifth overtime, and Eric Atkins and Pat Connaugton added free throws in the final 19 seconds as No. 25 Notre Dame overcame an eight-point deficit in regulation to beat No. 11 Louisville 104-101 on Saturday night.

Russ Smith had a chance to tie it, but his 3-point attempt missed before Notre Dame students flooded the court to celebrate. It marked the sixth time in the last eight meetings that a game between the Fighting Irish (19-5, 7-6 Big East) and the Cardinals (19-5, 7-4) went into overtime.

Both teams missed crucial free throws in the final minute. Atkins missed two with 37 seconds left and Montrezi Harrell did the same for Louisville with 24 seconds left.

Jerian Grant, who fouled out with 1:57 left in the first overtime, led the Irish with 19 points.

Casey Prather, playing in place of injured forward Will Yeguete, chipped in 12 points and five rebounds for Florida (19-3, 9-1 Southeastern Conference). Yeguete had arthroscopic surgery Friday to remove loose bodies in his right knee and will miss at least the rest of the regular season.

Gavin Ware scored 16 points, Colin Borchert added 14 and Trivante Bloodman chipped in 10 for Mississippi State (7-15, 2-8) — which played without guard Jalen Steele, who didn't make the trip after being suspended indefinitely for violating team rules.

WISCONSIN 65, NO. 3 MICHIGAN 62, OT

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Ben Brust hit a tiebreaking 3-pointer with less than 40 seconds left in overtime to lift Wisconsin to a surprise win over Michigan.

Brust's shot at the end of regulation was a dramatic turn of events for Wisconsin (17-7, 8-3 Big Ten) and a soul crusher for Michigan (21-3, 8-3). Just moments earlier, Tim Hardaway Jr. hit a contested 3-pointer to put the Wolverines up 60-57 with less than 3 seconds left in regulation.

Following a timeout, Mike Bruesewitz passed up his first option on the inbound play and hit Brust in stride. The guard took one dribble across halfcourt and launched a shot that hit nothing but net.

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Romero Osby scored 17 points, Steven Pledger added 15 and Oklahoma held off Kansas to give the Jayhawks their first three-game losing streak in eight years.

The Sooners (15-7, 6-4 Big 12) snapped a 10-game losing streak in the series and took down a top 5 opponent for the first time since beating then-No. 4 Texas on Jan. 28, 2006.

Freshman Je'lon Hornbeak went 4 for 6 at the free throw line in the final minute, just enough to keep the Jayhawks (19-4, 7-3) at bay. Cameron Clark hit two free throws to finish it off, and fans stormed the court after Buddy Hield came up with a steal and then dunked as the final buzzer sounded.

Ben McLemore led Kansas with 15 points.

NO. 6 GONZAGA 74, LOYOLA-MARYMOUNT 55

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Kevin Pangos and Kelly Olynyk each scored 20 points, and Gonzaga beat Loyola Marymount to put itself on the brink of cracking the top 5.

Anthony Ireland tied a career high with 30 points to lead cold-shooting Loyola Marymount (8-16, 1-10), which has lost eight straight games and is last in the league.

Loyola Marymount, playing its third game in six days, has lost seven straight times to Gonzaga since their last win in 2010. But they have lost 23 straight times in Spokane dating to 1992.

NO. 8 MIAMI 87, NORTH CAROLINA 61

CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — Shane Larkin had 18 points and a career-high nine assists, and Miami hit a school record-tying 15 3-pointers to beat North Carolina for its 11th straight victory.

With Miami Heat stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade in the stands, the Hurricanes put on another show at home, building margins of 9-0 and 44-27 to improve to 11-0 at home, where each of their past four wins have been by at least 22 points.

Such success is unprecedented for the Hurricanes (19-3, 10-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), who set a school record for ACC victories in a season with eight games to go.

The Spartans (20-4, 9-2 Big Ten) have won nine of their last 10 and will have at least a share of the league lead regardless of the result Sunday when No. 1 Indiana visits No. 10 Ohio State.

Purdue (12-12, 5-6) was led by Terone Johnson with 20 points and Ronnie Johnson with 15, but it wasn't enough to avoid a fourth loss in five games or a fifth straight loss in the series.

Michigan State opened the second half on a 12-5 spurt to take a 43-28 lead. Purdue never got closer than 11 after that.

NO. 13 KANSAS ST. 79, IOWA ST. 70

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Rodney McGruder scored 22 points and Angel Rodriguez added 20 as Kansas State knocked off Iowa State to take sole possession of first place in the Big 12.

Korie Lucious led the Cyclones (16-7, 6-4) with 16 points and reserve Tyrus McGee had 15.

The Wildcats (19-4, 8-2) held a slim 33-32 lead at the break in a game that remained close most of the way. With 9:10 remaining, Kansas State led 61-52.

In response to a pair of Iowa State baskets, Gipson and Rodriguez both scored and put the Wildcats up 65-55 — the first double-digit lead of the game.

Consecutive 3s by Lucious pulled the Cyclones within seven but Iowa State could get no closer.

NO. 14 BUTLER 59, GEORGE WASHINGTON 56

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rotnei Clark scored 14 points and Butler nearly blew a 17-point lead, going the last 7½ minutes without a field goal, before holding on for a victory over George Washington.

The Colonials cut the lead to one in the final minute and had several 3-point looks in the final 10 seconds that could have sent the game to overtime. Joe McDonald had the final chance, but he was stripped as he went up for the shot just before time expired.

Isaiah Armwood had 14 points and 11 rebounds for George Washington (11-11, 5-4).

UNLV 64, NO. 15 NEW MEXICO 55

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Anthony Bennett had 17 points and 12 rebounds to lead UNLV to a victory over New Mexico.

The Runnin' Rebels (18-6, 5-4 Mountain West) came in desperately needing a win after surprising losses to Boise State and at Fresno State. Though they shot just 37.1 percent (23 of 62) from the field, the Rebels were 9 of 22 (40.9 percent) from beyond the arc.

Bryce DeJean-Jones and Katin Reinhardt each scored 16 points for UNLV. Jones was 3 of 6 from 3-point range, and Reinhardt was 4 of 7. Anthony Marshall added 11 points for the Rebels.

Alex Kirk scored 17 points to lead New Mexico (20-4, 7-2).

ILLINOIS ST. 75, NO. 16 CREIGHTON 72

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Tyler Brown scored 23 of his 27 points in the second half and Illinois State took advantage of Creighton's dismal shooting to beat the Bluejays.

The Redbirds (15-10, 6-7) have won six of their last seven after losing their first six Missouri Valley Conference games. The Bluejays (20-5, 9-4) lost their second straight.

After Creighton's Grant Gibbs hit two free throws to make it 75-72, Illinois State's John Wilkins was called for double dribbling just before the buzzer. One second was put back on the clock, and Wragge's long pass to McDermott at mid-court was bobbled as time ran out.

McDermott scored 24 points to lead the Bluejays.

NO. 23 PITTSBURGH 62, NO. 17 CINCINNATI 52

CINCINNATI (AP) — Tray Woodall scored 14 points and led a late surge that sent Pittsburgh to a victory over Cincinnati, keeping the momentum going for one of the Big East's hottest teams.

The Panthers (20-5, 8-4) have won seven of their last eight games overall and four of their last five on the road. They beat No. 6 Syracuse 65-55 a week ago, vaulting them into the Top 25.

Woodall hit a pair of free throws and a 3-pointer during a 7-0 run that put Pitt ahead to stay with 3:21 left. The conference's stingiest defense held Cincinnati (18-6, 6-5) without a field goal over the final 9 minutes, 21 seconds.

Sean Kilpatrick led Cincy with 16 points, but missed all seven shots he took after halftime.

NO. 19 OREGON 73, UTAH 64

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — E.J. Singler had 21 points and Oregon overcame a poor start to end its three-game losing streak with a victory over Utah.

Damyean Dotson added 16 points for the Ducks (19-5, 8-3 Pac-12), who had been on a slide after opening conference play with seven straight victories.

Oregon trailed 30-22 after the first half but pulled in front midway through the second and extended its lead to 53-45 on Carlos Emory's tip-in with 6:32 left. The Ducks led by as many as 13 points down the stretch.

Jason Washburn had 20 points and seven rebounds for the Utes (10-13, 2-9).

NO. 20 GEORGETOWN 69, RUTGERS 63

PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Markel Starks scored 20 points and Otto Porter took over down the stretch to lead Georgetown over Rutgers.

Porter had 15 of his 19 points in the second half and grabbed 14 rebounds for the Hoyas (17-4, 7-3 Big East), who have won five straight and seven of their last eight. Mikael Hopkins had 12 of his 14 points after halftime and D'Vaun Smith-Rivera scored 13.

Eli Carter had 23 points for the Scarlet Knights (12-10, 3-8), who lost their sixth straight.

After a string of nine straight scoring sequences produced either a lead change or tie, Porter scored on a fast-break layup to make it 62-60 with 4:44 left to give the Hoyas the lead for good.

Phil Pressey had four assists to break Anthony Peeler's school record and had 22 points for Missouri (17-6, 6-4 Southeastern Conference), which bounced back from its latest discouraging road loss, a 1-point setback at Texas A&M on Thursday. The Tigers are 14-0 at home and 0-5 on the road.

Marshall Henderson had 16 points on 4-for-15 shooting for Mississippi (18-5, 7-3), which was on the verge of cracking the Top 25 last week but has lost three of four. Jarvis Summers also had 16 points, while Murphy Holloway, coming off a career-best 24 points, was held to seven in 30 minutes.
